2 million reasons not to Facebook through class
From the start of elementary school until high school graduation, students spend two million minutes preparing for their future. Director Chad Heeter’s documentary 2 Million Minutes explores the dramatic differences between the way Western students spend that time versus students in China and India.
You know, that’s a really good question. I would try good video stores like Queen video (who would likely order this) or ask the more commercial chains if they’ll order (unlikely).
I have a very small video place near my house that has a great doc section. They will order anything I ask for as long as its available through their distributor.
Otherwise, check their website for updates – apparently they’ve screened it at quite a few universities.

In the meantime, for other inspirational / must engage stuff:
1. The TED talks – any of them. Online, free, mind-blowing stuff.

2. Whole New Mind (book)
I highly recommend Dan Pink’s new book Whole New Mind. It’s a good overview of the kind of big picture thinking occurring among the more innovative business leaders.
